how the tex was won

although the count has still not come in the caucus results i think i might know how billary won the primary thanks to family

talked to mom last week. as the only known open democrat in my family besides Uncle Bobby (although i wouldn't doubt aunt cathy being a closeted democrat...no pun intended) it is always interesting getting perspective from the republicans in my family. my uncle Eddie who subscribes to Rush Limbahness voted for billary. This was the first time i had seen a possible trend spoken on cnn to come true. Eddie voted for billary in the open primary because he does feel that she would be easier to beat come November. wow. with texas being a republican state i now can see where billary would have gotten the votes.

on a side note, my father still claims me to be family since i will not be voting her.

disappointed

warning: i may contradict myself in this blog

I'm bothered most by responses to the Wright clips on the web and the responses to Obama's speech in regards to Wright. Wright obviously at one point or another did teach Obama good christian values as he will not disown or turn away from someone whom may have said some things to disappoint them. He did not run from the comments and in this action/speech i still admire Obama but fear that most of us, myself included, have lost touch in being more forgiving.

I have, in the past, turned my back on people somewhat close to me because of being hurt by them. My father had let me down in more ways than one and I have never been able to truly say goodbye to him to this day although he has already passed on. More recently, a friend passed judgment on me for a decision Alex and myself had made. Her judgments hurt me a great deal and caused me to start doubting trust. I turned my back on her. I can justify this that the problems I had with these people affected my health in which it did. I need to forgive myself for turning my back on these people before I can remotely forgive them. I just wonder sometimes if I truly want to forgive them.

Happy St. Paddy's Day

Hope everyone is having good day today and wearing green. I've been sick most morning but hopefully this afternoon will be better.

Been reading books so I'm feeling a little smarter. I won the biggest loser thingy last week but definitely lost out this week.

Drama with family and I don't know how long that will go on so please keep us in your prayers.

I'm gonna try and eat something and then prolly head into work since I'll be missing some on Friday for denist.
